Growler from Thethrone! Huge thanks man!

Poured into a Dogfish pint. Pours a light mahogany with a beautiful off white 1"head that would not quit. A striking beer. Smell is of some piney hops, and some sweet citrus candy-ish smells. Taste is not extremely bitter, but a nice spruce type bitter with a delicate sweet malt finish. This beer is too easy to drink. Great up front flavor with a real smooth finish. Slightly slick mouthfeel- almost hop-oily. Tremendous beer, thanks for the opportunity! I love growling at the moon!

Growler obtained via Growling Without a Keystone from thethrone. Thanks for the opportunity.

Poured into an imperial pint glass, formed a 3/4" light beige head over the almost clear copper brew. Head lasts well, with plentiful sticky lace. Aroma is fresh pine cones.

Taste starts moderately sweet, pine hops start int he middle, and carry on through the end. Doesn't overdo the bitter, but enough for the style, which is cool. Mouthfeel is very smooth, and drinkability is extremely easy for the style. A nice brew here, for sure!
